Introducing Game File, a New Venture by Stephen Totilo

Veteran games journalist Stephen Totilo has embarked on an independent journey with the launch of Game File, a reader-supported website and newsletter focused on the world of video games. In a social media announcement, Totilo expressed his enthusiasm and slight nervousness about this new chapter, stating his commitment to delivering top-notch coverage of the gaming industry's culture and business. Reflecting on his time at Axios, where he worked alongside a talented team, Totilo extended his gratitude, particularly to Megan Nicolett. Although he is moving forward with Game File, Totilo plans to make occasional contributions to Axios and other publications. With a professional background that includes a 12-year stint as editor-in-chief at Kotaku and two years covering the gaming sector at Axios, Totilo's Game File joins a growing list of gaming media platforms founded by experienced professionals, including Aftermath, Second Wind, and 3rd-Phase Boss.
